Imagine watching your son work himself to exhaustion in a faraway land, with nothing but his pet monkey to keep him company!!

Yikes — we shudder to think!!

Every mother worries about her children, but imagine how taxing it must be for Justin Bieber's mama, Pattie Mallette!!!

The 38-year-old Canadian gal visited promoted her new book Nowhere But Up on Today and she admitted that being a parent, even to the super rich and super powerful and super adorable, is never easy.

Security entourage or not, she still worries!

Pattie revealed:

“Well, I think as parents we all worry about our kids, whether they’re going off to college, you know, whatever — whatever situation they’re in. I think at a certain age, the parenting style changes. And, he’s always been such a strong-willed child, you know. I talk about that [in the book].”

With all the trouble swirling around The Biebs recently, we can hardly blame her for her concern!

She continued:

“I talk to Justin. I text him and I call him every day, as much as you can for an adult child that doesn’t live with you. He knows what I think. We talk. It’s stuff that obviously I can’t share with the whole world, but we definitely talk. I hope I’m still a big voice in his ear.”

Aww!

Between JB's busy touring/recording schedule and all the Selena Gomezdramz, we're just happy he makes time for his mom!

Hmmmmmm, I question her "parenting" skills. Justin has been living without her for a while now. Justin's behaviour is inexcusable, and she obviously has/had no control over him. It's obvious she was a child when she had Justin and wasn't able to give the guidance he would have needed in order to become a functional adult.

with or without him her book has been selling..and honestly i dont think he cares if his mother uses her pitty for him to pitch her book at the end of the day ..that's the family he has…and the money is for both of them..he is doing what he does to make sure his mom has it all cause she has always been there for him since they were broke as hell.so just leave them alone..and let them do what they do

Re: Zoey_Graham – No one expected him to be an angel, Zoey. However, driving at excessively high rates of speed repeatedly throughout his neighborhood endangering lives, doing all sorts of drugs, making fans wait over 3 hours past the starting time of his concerts, is being totally irresponsible and inappropriate and is just not acceptable.

thanks amazingman and judalon; you both speak the truth. this little douche twat was obviously raised by a spoiled brat and came out just like her. she should have put him out of his misery while he laid in his crib! I BLAME THAT BITCH FOR THE BIEBER FEVER PANDEMIC!

Re: Zoey_Graham – you tell him! Don't ruin my changes of getting beliebed with your trash talking my human's baby daddy! Stop talking smack about Bieber! You can be doing so much more with your time like scratching me! theres this horrible rash on me that wont go away and started sprouting bumps. don't scratch those, just the in between!

Re: Zoey_Graham – As a Canadian and a person with empathy I have a lot of respect for Pattie for overcoming the problems of her youth; addictions, single parenthood as a teenager, poverty, homelessness and eventually finding religion. She did the best she could as a teen mom and when it became apparent that she couldn't give Justin the care he needed she gave him to her parents to raise for a chance for him to have a better life. That shows love for your child in my opinion.

Re: Zoey_Graham – At one point before Pattie gave Justin to her parents to raise they were homeless, and she eventually had to resort to being on welfare and using food banks. This is not an indictment on her ability to parent responsibly, this is just the way it is for many people who live in poverty across North America, one only has to look at the amount of people who use food banks to make that point clear.

Re: amazingman – Oh please! I think Pattie did a remarkable job in raising Justin, and later giving him to her parents to raise. But what can you do with a strong willed child except the unimaginable and try to break them? Many parents have pulled their hair out trying to cope with a strong willed child, and Pattie is not the first! Now that he is out of her parental control, there is not much she can do now but to hope for the best while he grows up. I for one am glad to hear she is in daily contact with him, that shows she is concerned for his well being and loves him. All those stories about him being out of control is just plain B.S cooked up by media.

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
